Hi Dennis,

It can be seen on the up to date map at www.streetmap.co.uk if you input the street name, click the "street" marker, then search.

All the best,

Andrew Paterson

My sister and I lived there for a while at 65 Hopehill Road.
We were both born nearby.

Hi Billy.

Hi Billy. Wow! I went and read about that disaster after your post; my heart goes out to the victims and their families.

All 8 of my Bennetts are Edinburgh in the last half of 19th C.
